Re: Runnign lite power source?

I had some on my car to pass Canadian import laws, now removed. I used the aux power outlet at the top of the fuse box in the drivers side kick panel. There are 4 options for power there. It is a short run out to the hood thru a rubber grommet located in the footwell just a few inches ahead of the fuse box. I have since rerouted the wire behind my head unit and used it to power my sirius radio and V1.

Here is a shot of the page from the manual with the 4 power outs at the top. They are labeled as to how they function.

Sorry, didn't come out a large as I intended. They are the four at the top right of the fuse box in the image.

Starting from left they supply power as follows;

1st on with lights

2nd on with key in ign position

3rd always on

4th on with key in acc position

I used the second one and it worked perfectly other than the DRL's were on when the headlights were on as well. If I had kept the DRL's I would have installed a simple relay to turn off the DRL's when the headlights come on. I would have used the first outlet (on with lights) to power the relay thus turning off the DRL's.
